A high-contrast serif with strong vertical emphasis and very thin hairlines. Serifs are sharp and delicate, largely unbracketed, giving terminals a crisp, cut-in feel. Round letters show a pronounced thick–thin rhythm and a clean, controlled curve, while the caps sit on a stately proportion with ample presence. Lowercase forms are compact and disciplined, with narrow entry/exit strokes and a precise, print-oriented finish; numerals follow the same formal, contrasty construction.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and brand marks where its contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated. It also works well for high-end editorial layouts and fashion or luxury communications, particularly in larger sizes or with generous spacing.
The overall tone is polished and formal, with a fashion/editorial sophistication and a touch of drama from the razor-thin details. It reads as classic and upscale, conveying authority and refinement rather than warmth or casualness.
Designed to deliver a modernized classic serif voice with pronounced contrast and precision, prioritizing elegance and impact. The intent appears to be a clean, high-fashion editorial look that remains composed and readable when set with care.
The design’s very fine serifs and hairlines create a shimmering texture in paragraphs and a crisp snap in large sizes, especially where diagonals and joints meet. Curved letters and bowls stay smooth and controlled, and the punctuation/spacing in the sample suggests a composed, magazine-like rhythm.
